Because I was pushed! Thanks Jess!

Last week Jess reminded me that I haven’t posted in a while so Jess this ones for you.

The question was brought up this last weekend, “how can a merciful, loving God send people to hell.” Well here is my answer to that.

The Bible says that God prepared hell for the devil and his demonic cohorts (Matthew 25:41 ), that He is "...not wishing for any [person] to perish but for all to come to repentance ." ( II Peter 3:9 ), we know this even as little children memorizing (John 3:16) ,”For God so loved the world the He send his only begotten Son that WHOSOEVER believeth in Him shall not parish but have everlasting life.” God has done everything possible to save us from that terrible, terrible place. Yet in the end God will not violate or overrule the deliberate choice of those who consciously and willfully turn away and reject Him.

God has chosen to give the human race free will, We make our own choices, God is not like the puppet master pulling our strings making us do everything he wants us to do!

God does not send people to hell, as a matter of fact God does everything He can to keep you out of hell. The bible tells us that everyone will hear the message of God and His Love, “no rock will be left unturned.” If a person goes to hell, it is because they have chosen to reject God.
